"Quiescent" seems like a fitting word, yes. A bit too quiescent, sometimes, for me... Apart from a handful of relative newbies (to either the fandom in itself or writing fic in it), it feels like everyone regards it as that "good ol' show from back in the days", much melancholy but little real activity anymore. Apart from the Love Month, of course, which was terrific! So I do recognize the bumptious-puppy feeling!
Don't worry, when I get confused by any of your arguments, I'll let you know. :)
As for the recs: oh, no promises needed at all. I love the characters and the authors who write them, hence I love reccing them, and I agree that it's hard sometimes to separate the gen from the slash - when it's mild slash, it's often not even mentioned, so I see where that'd be off-putting for someone who's looking for gen. And seeing how you recommended "The pictures of Regent Virini" to me, I thought these fics would be your thing, too.
How is the G'Kar and Na'Toth and Vir fic coming along, by the way? (not rushing you, just getting curious)
